Would it make sense to also make UDIAG_SHOW_NAME use sk_description?
(And keep the existing change - setsockopt + show_fd_info via
/proc/.../fdinfo/..)

Ah,very wrong example - to be more precise, I suppose that'd be adding
a couple idiag_ext for sk_description and pid if possible instead

About the pid part -
On top of multiple pids to scan for a given socket, there's also the
security provided by /proc - I'm not sure what inet_diag does for that
So maybe users calling it will need to scan /proc for a long time anyway...

Or is that doable?
